Ingredients

2 (9in) pie shells, baked
3 c white sugar
3 c water
4 eggs, separated
1 c evaporated milk
1/2 c corn syrup, light
1/4 c butter, melted
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 c flour
1/2 tsp cream of tartar

Steps:

1. Beat together egg yolks, evaporated milk, syrup, melted butter or margarine, vanilla, 1/2 cup sugar, and flour.
2. Brown 2 cups sugar in an iron skillet until light brown. Remove from heat. Add water; and return to heat until sugar dissolves. Pour in egg yolk mixture. Cook until thickened, then simmer 5 minutes. Pour filling into 2 baked pie shells.
3. Beat egg whites until foamy. Add cream of tartar and 1/2 cup sugar; continue to beat until stiff peaks form. Spread meringue over pies, sealing the edges.
4. Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for about 15 minutes.
5. Optional: I like to make pecan pie shells to accompany the caramel. They really complement each other.
